World's most popular most video streaming website YOUTUBE started supporting full HD videos just 8-9 months back. and now it is taking a step further to support videos upto 4K resolution (ie. 4096x3112 resolution)
What is 4K resolution.??
To illustrate the power of 4K, please check out the videos in this playlist; each one was created by a filmmaker with access to a 4K camera. (Be warned: watching videos in 4K, even on YouTube, will require ultra-fast high-speed broadband connections).
To view any video in a source resolution greater than 1080p, select "Original" in the video quality pulldown menu:
You usually find 4K resolution videos in the movie theaters, that utilize a 25-feet wide display to exhibit the huge resolution.
According to YouTube engineer, Ramesh Sarukkai,
“…we support original video resolution from 360p all the way up to 4K. To give some perspective on the size of 4K, the ideal screen size for a 4K video is 25 feet; IMAX movies are projected through two 2k resolution projectors.”
